 Do you disagree?  Like your Chive links, I can pull up and repost 50 similar lunatic links from purportedly mainstream sites like Salon and Slate daily.  Someone far less lazy than me posted that screenshot, and I thought it was a perfect nutshell.

 My definition of the progressive movement is woven directly out of the crap* folks like you post here, which I like to think that even you don't believe half of.

 "Not even for debate."  Wow.  Let's play that game.  "Hillary Clinton is a lying, felonious, woman-abusing narcissist who has done nothing [successful] in her life, unless cutting back-door deals as SoS to make money for her family foundation counts.  It's not even for debate."

 Unlike Obama, who just haphazardly carpet bombs all the time.  LessinSF has my proxy on this one.

 Um, why not?  They keep "unexpectedly" erasing hard drives under subpoena - whereas if you can't find a receipt from 2007, they'll haul your ass in, file a lien, and make you pay to defend yourself.  They are the modern-day Stasi.  They should indeed be dismantled, and their senior officials should be jailed.

 the only racist and exclusionary talk I hear these days comes from Progressives and their fringe BLM and La Raza types wanting to re-segregate portions of college campuses.  BTW, aren't only 3 caucasians running for POTUS on the Democrat line?  How utterly racist and exclusionary of them.

 Oh fucking stop.  No one is calling to reconstitute the country as a "fundamentalist Christian nation."   First of all, there is no such nation existing on the planet, let alone here.  Preaching "Judeo-Christian" values is hardly the same thing, and not exactly a bad thing either, since those "values" tend to foster family and work-ethic.  But since you brought it up, let's point out that parts of Scandinavia, France, Belgium and other parts of Europe are quickly finding out that there actually 
is such a thing as a "fundamentalist Muslim nation".   Reminding folks of that - and not wanting the same here - is hardly the same as wanting a "fundamentalist Christian nation."

 I'm amazed you left out being champions of Second Amendment rights.  Because being able to own a gun and defend myself is certainly far more dangerous than preventing me from owning a gun and preventing me from defending myself when I get shot and my family is raped before the police arrive, maybe.
